PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Augier De Rabat (ranked 4138 p4p, 5602 weight class) and Seung Woo Choi (ranked 269 p4p, 336 weight class). De Rabat kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Marche des Templiers. Seung Woo Choi told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
